Favorite bar

by bignish

I am a die hard regular at Mugsys. I started hanging out here because it was a friendly casual place to chill with friends. I continue going here because it very quickly becomes the place where everyone knows you and you can be comfortable with a dozen friends or by yourself.

  • Pros: Large drinks/shots. Good discounts for industry workers.
  • Cons: Can get a little loud on some friday nights.

Best bar EVER

by i_heart_beer

After reading "Upscale, yet not's" review...I am going to agree with everything except for the last line. I have met several people there, and am now friends with them. It is a friendly crowd, for sure. Yes, there are people "in groups", and when I go there I am normally with 6+people and see several more people I know. I go to Mugsy's at least once a weekend...if I am in town. It is a great spot, the bar tenders are nice, remember your name and beers are $3.50...you should check it out for sure...even if you are a tourist!

  • Pros: Great location, parking and people
  • Cons: It gets a little smoky after about midnight, but then they open the door :)
